Yes better before, not perfect, just better. We could see immediately when the cheat programs were patched out based on no signs. If you wiggled your way into the know, you’d get the info that it was a patch and the developers had to work quick to make it usable again. Sometimes this meant days, a week or even a month of barely anything. Rarely longer but at least some reprieve. It was also very targeted.
In the last 2 years there’s also been a switch in availability. Without getting into specifics, I know this doesn’t mean much. Also, price points matter.
Many used to use the cheaper options; which was easy to bypass in terms of dealing with.
Sorry, I’m using a lot of vague terminology here, just trying not to get into trouble.
4 going on 5 months ago there was a change and there’s been no pause, no lull. It has been a constant.
While it’s always been a problem it’s never been this bad. We already had problems as it is with offlining, exploits and system changes, so definitely some decline due to that. But players, especially vets, always came back, hard to stay away.
